Comments Thread For: Schaefer: Who is Bob Arum Fooling? He is Full of ****!

[mathed]

That's actually not true. Mexican boxing fans would much rather see Floyd Vs Manny then Canelo against however. Canelo Vs Cotto will not even do close to 1 mil. It would problably do 700buys at best.

Why would you think that? You think Mexicans would rather watch a Floyd fight than a Canelo fight?

Floyd's highest grossing fights have been against DLH and Canelo. ALL of his opponents have been of Hispanic decent because of that date. Why doesn't Floyd fight in April against some black guy or some opponent who is not Hispanic?

He chooses Hispanic holidays and Hispanic opponents so that the Hispanic market can boost his sales, nothing more. If Floyd were to fight some non-Hispanic on a non-Hispanic holiday, you still think all the Hispanic boxing fans will spend $70-$80 to watch him fight?

Lmao.... You can't be serious...


Jesus h. Christ,, floyd huggers are simple fools..


Showtime and hbo say they will work together...
Floyd says it has to be a showtime only PPv.... Obvious roadblock "duck"
The **** riders say irrelevant..




Once again,, I will ask " why would Floyd say that"

show me where arum said showtime/hbo was problem? He never does! His reason is date. So its irrelevant but go ahead and try to spin this on floyd.

Arum problem always has been

[Fetta]

You are wrong.

Why would Arum go thru the trouble of having talks with the CEO of CBS and others then?

The logic presented by you Floyd fans doesn't even make any sense. If Canelo vs Cotto is announced for May 2nd then what? Floyd will still fight on May 2nd? No! Floyd would have to concede and move to another date. You should agree thus far.

So then there is still the opportunity for a fight between Manny and Floyd on another date. So what is the big deal? Nothing to blame on Arum. The fight can still be made since Floyd needs an opponent. So does Manny.

Canelo and cotto will back down.

Dont feed this excuse. Arum wants out after Floyd said yes

I'm not talking about arum...

Once again floyd riders can't answer a simple question...


Please answer,,

Why would FLOYD say on the showtime interview that it has to be a showtime PPv only?

Why would he say that?

Please explain or stop quoting me and duck the question

All of the sudden Les Moonves is a household name on NSB ... If you were to ask any of these guys a month ago who the CEO of CBS was without a smartphone in their hand you'd have a bunch of question marks in the air... Where/when did Arum speak to this guy? Did he confirm it? Arum isn't dumb and knows exactly who he needs to speak to in order to get this fight made ... Let's be for real. Is that stadium even going to be ready by the time the CEO of CBS co promotes the event with Arum in Dubai?

If you give Mexican boxing fans Manny Vs Floyd, they will not be thinking about Canelo period! Manny Vs Floyd would not even lose on buy against Cotto VS Canelo. The ones that would be buying Cotto Vs Canelo will be watching later after Manny Vs Floyd gets done.

I'm not on a crusade,,,,


The undisputable facts,,,,


Showtime/cbs, hbo, arum, manny, Oscar, golden boy, sponsors are all going public with their desire to work together to finally make this fight happen..

Floyd says last week "I want manny May 2nd"

Interviewed by showtime a few days later and floyd declares " but it has to be a showtime only PPv". Even though both hbo and showtime will work together and it has zero effect on Floyd's paycheck

Basically as clear as day floyd doesn't want the fight...

Only a complete idiot can think otherwise
